The sun sets on the field

And darkness is my shield

A bullet in my back, and shrapnel's turned my ankle black

Every step I take advances forth my dying state

I hear their screams of agony; their tortured souls will soon be free

You're struggling through the night

You're searching for the light

You're swimming in a sea of fire

Moonlight reflects the blood

The battle's lost, not won

I'm swimming in a sea of fire

Crawling over corpses, I hear the thunder of their horses

Cossacks killing wounded men, I hear their pleas time and again

I'm on my journey through the dark, my pain and tears may not leave a mark

I see the campfires up ahead, I thought for sure that I'd be dead

A quest for safe haven, a quest to live again

I'm swimming through a sea of fire

Promise you will come back to me

Swear now, say you will agree

-Terror, I may never make it back

Moments that I live for all the while

Heartache, worth it just to see your smile

-I hear them coming, I fear they will attack

A hundred yards away, the Cossacks come your way

You're fleeing from a sea of fire

They stop and then dismount

My time has now run out

I'm sinking in a sea of fire
